My trees are covered in these dam things, there is no end to them.
What is the best way to kill whitefly?

Cheers - Craig.

Hi Craig, Do you have any pics of the them. I have a bug that is eating my maples that could be whiefly. I have been unable to get a positive ID on the dam things and nothing seems to deter them. Thanks
